Translated video description:

Just before midnight on March 2, 2023, we were alerted to a vessel taking on water. The fishing cutter UK-149 and the Pilot Boat Pollux immediately went to the scene because they were already in the area. Together with colleagues from KNRM Hoek van Holland and Scheveningen we arrived at the incident ship. The passengers were taken off board and the first pumps were transferred. After the leak was found, it was closed and while pumping, we set sail towards the mountain harbour. Here the vessel was safely moored.

Successful deployment with all units.
